Affiliate Terms

Last updated: 21 September 2026

These Affiliate Terms apply if you register for the SpotMyPixel affiliate program. They supplement the Terms of Service. If they conflict on commission mechanics, these Affiliate Terms control for that topic. The operator is identified in the Terms.

Eligibility

The program is limited to businesses established in an EU member state, including companies, sole traders, and self-employed professionals acting in a business capacity. Registration by email creates an application account only. You do not earn commissions and do not receive a usable referral code until all of the following are complete: an approved EU country of establishment, a business/professional declaration, a valid EU VAT identification number, successful VIES validation, completed Stripe Connect verification, acceptance of these Affiliate Terms, and final operator approval. A VIES outage is not treated as successful validation. US and other non-EU applicants are not eligible.

An affiliate account does not authorise you to buy pixels from a blocked location. Geographic eligibility for purchases is separate and is described in the Terms.

Independent promoter

You promote SpotMyPixel as an independent business. You have no authority to negotiate prices, conclude contracts, open local offices, appoint sub-agents, or otherwise bind the operator. You must not represent that you are an employee, branch, or authorised contracting agent of SpotMyPixel.

The program

Affiliates may earn a commission on direct purchases attributed to their referral link or code. There is no multi-level, recruitment, or residual commission on other affiliates. Commission is not an investment return, salary, or guaranteed income. We do not promise any level of traffic, conversion, or earnings.

Referral link and code

After approval we issue a referral code and a link in the form /?ref=YOURCODE. Attribution uses that code on a verified paid order. Optional device storage of the code is described in the Cookie Policy. If a visitor rejects optional affiliate attribution, they can still buy; you may not receive credit unless they enter your code at checkout.

Commission basis

Commission is calculated on the verified paid order amount (integer cents), using the server-configured rate in basis points. The current default configuration is 1,000 basis points (10%). The live rate shown in the affiliate dashboard and at /api/affiliate/program is authoritative if the operator changes configuration. Commission applies only to attributed paid orders, Commission applies only to attributed paid orders that remain geographically eligible. Unpaid checkouts, self-referrals, and purchases later refused or refunded for location ineligibility do not create a payable commission. We may suspend commission earning if VAT, VIES, Stripe Connect, or other eligibility conditions lapse.

Hold, approval, refunds, and chargebacks

New commissions start as pending. The current default hold is 14 days, and manual operator approval is still required before funds are available to request. Refunds, chargebacks, or disputes can reverse commission. If commission was already included in a paid payout, a ledger adjustment may be recorded; we do not automatically claw funds back from your bank.

Payouts

You may request a payout from the dashboard when your approved, unlocked balance meets the threshold. The current default threshold is 5,000 cents (50.00 in the configured currency, typically USD). Commission is not paid automatically when a referred customer purchases. Commissions start as pending, may require approval, and are paid only after you request a payout or an operator selects commissions for transfer. When Stripe Connect is enabled, payouts require Stripe-hosted onboarding. Stripe processes affiliate identity, KYC, and payout details through Stripe-hosted flows and the Stripe Dashboard. SpotMyPixel receives limited account and status information and does not store your bank or card details. Approved commissions are transferred to your Stripe connected account; Stripe then pays those funds to your bank according to Stripe’s payout mechanics. You are responsible for any taxes on commissions. Stripe Transfers are a payment rail and do not replace invoices that applicable accounting rules may require. Self-billing is not in effect unless a confirmed written arrangement exists.

These payout mechanics describe the software as implemented. They are not tax, regulatory, or banking advice.

Prohibited conduct

Self-referral, fictitious orders, or other fraud
Misleading advertising, including investment, income, or ROI guarantees
Using SpotMyPixel marks in a way we reasonably consider abusive
Cookie stuffing, forced redirects, or malware
Account sharing or abuse of magic-link login

Self-referral is prohibited and is blocked when the purchaser email matches the affiliate email. We may disable accounts, withhold or reverse commissions, and refuse payouts where we reasonably suspect abuse.

No buyer personal data

Affiliates do not receive purchaser names, emails, payment-card data, or other buyer personal data from SpotMyPixel. Dashboard figures are limited to dates, purchase amounts, and commission status for attributed orders.

Termination

You or SpotMyPixel may end program participation. We may disable an affiliate account. Pending or approved commissions remain subject to reversal for refunds, chargebacks, or policy violations.
